Artist Statement The images I create are a product of my past. An early passion for watercolors influences my selection of papers, as well my style and compositions, while my parents, studies in biology and art provided my interest in nature and landscapes as my subjects. Later, my career in technology and quality assurance provided me with the skills and knowledge to utilize the digital camera, software, printers and color management process to create the final print. Landscape photography, however, is ultimately an exercise in hope. Like studio based artists, I can, and do, visualize an image I want to create, unlike the studio artist, I must find the components of the image and hope that conditions will support its creation. More often than not disappointment is on the agenda, but nature and light sometimes align creating the opportunity for that perfect image. What I hope the viewer takes from my work are my love of light and how it plays across the landscape, love of nature, my patience and skills to achieve the capture, and finally, a stirring impression from the print.
